Question

find the angle with a tangent ratio of 0.6009.
a. 51°
b. 39°
c. 31°
d. 59°
please select the best answer from the choices provided
o a
o b
o c
o d

Explanation:

Step1: Recall inverse - tangent function

Let the angle be $\theta$. We know that $\tan\theta = 0.6009$, so $\theta=\arctan(0.6009)$.

Step2: Use a calculator

Using a scientific calculator in degree - mode, $\theta=\arctan(0.6009)\approx 31^{\circ}$.

Answer:

C. $31^{\circ}$
